Accommodations The forward stateroom has a very spacious v-berth with hanging locker, drawers, and an enclosed head. Aft of the forward stateroom is a three step companionway that leads up to the galley/helm/saloon/dinette. There are hardwood parquet floors throughout the boat. The large, leatherette upholstered U-shaped settee accommodates six people. Heading further aft down a three step companionway you enter the aft stateroom. There are two berths, one twin and one full, and an enclosed head in the corner. There is also deck access through a door at the rear of the aft stateroom.
The main salon is entered from doors both port and starboard. The main salon area consists of the captains computer/radio desk station, entertainment center, L shaped settee seating around the dining table, bar area, inside helm station and galley-up design. This allows the cook to be part of the group while entertaining. The galley up also makes day to day food prep easier with no stairs to climb, and pleasant with the large window views.
The port side settee area has been converted to a computer/radio station for the captain’s monitoring of the weather. The main salon cushions have been redone.
The white window screen coverings, a textaline material with an open weave that allows ventilation without bugs or no-see-ums, provide shade and privacy.
The main salon lighting has been upgraded for comfortable reading.
Three zone air conditioning.
Master Stateroom Aft from the main salon, down three built in stairs with storage is the master cabin. While Gadabaut does not have a walk around bed it has floor space between the California twin bunk on port and the full size bunk with pillow-top mattress on starboard. This allows a six drawer chest-of-drawers arrangement with additional under bunk drawer storage. The aft cabin hanging locker is very spacious, and allowing for the custom built-in 2.8 cu ft, 12 volt freezer to be contained without affecting the actual clothes hanging space. The aft head has a vac-u-flush toilet, molded sink counter top and a full sized shower.

Flybridge The flybridge area contains the exterior helm station with both forward and aft facing seating. There is a custom starboard dinette table and the two traditional Grand Banks chairs can be moved in to seat four people comfortably. These same chairs are brought into the main salon for seating for four dinner guests.
The flybridge cushions have been redone to include Dri-Fast foam. Other additions on the flybridge include starboard dinette and drink holders. The wind screen is new Lexan.
Deck The custom dinghy davit allows single handed launching and retrieving of the 10 foot AB inflatable with the 15HP Yamaha. Additional securing straps are used for passage making trips. By not having the dinghy on the cabin top, crew members are able to work the side deck without obstruction. The original dinghy base on the cabin top has been modified to hold kayaks (no kayak included).

Mechanical Equipment Gadabaut has twin Lehman 135 main engines, and 8KW Westerbeke generator. Both main engines and the generator have been properly maintained with regular maintenance. There are many spare parts. Both Borg Warner drop center CR2 transmissions were rebuilt in 2006 by transmission marine in Ft. Lauderdale.
Injectors have also been changed with rebuilds. The engines are clean, leak no oils. In 150 hours run time, they burn no oil as well. I run them at 1800 RPM which gives me 8 knots speed, and a fuel consumption of about 3.5 to 4 GPH.
